Its not going to be as good as Claude, but if you know what you're doing, it may be good enough to get your work done.

- data-ottawa 4mo agoThis is task dependent. I find devstral (even though it’s weak generally) much better at writing and documentation than Opus. I’m actually now delegating all documentation to devstral and away from Claude, which makes a mess.
- garciasn 4mo agoA highly skilled carpenter may be able to 'get work done' by banging nails in with a heavy-bottomed cocktail glass, doesn't mean it's not painful to do so when it is continuously breaking and leaving shards of glass all over the workshop for you to find every day for the rest of your life until you clean up the mess you made using the wrong tool for the job.
- CamperBob2 4mo agoMore like, a highly-skilled carpenter can work miracles with a $6 hammer from the hardware store, while the pros on the commercial crew are using fancy compressed-air tools. The carpenter has to get up close and personal with the wood. He can't match the crew's throughput, but maybe that's not what he's trying to do.

The $20/mo cloud models are a nice DeWalt that gives an hour of jam-free operation but takes five hours to recharge. And if someone else is paying for it, one can use the heavy duty nail gun with a big generator and compressor on a trailer that can run all day.
